Congrats To SIU For Taking A Stand And Announcing A Hiatus. I Don't Know Alot, Because I'm An English

Congrats to SIU for taking a stand and announcing a hiatus. I don't know alot, because I'm an English fan, but Webtoon isn't the best company to work for.

I can't imagine the pressure smaller creators are under.

He's a human being first. It hurt to hear/read that he feels like his entire life is dedicated to TOG. That's not healthy.

Idk if everyone knows already but the company forced him to work during a break before. He literally snapped and wrote that he hates how he's being treated. In the special chapter/army parody they made him write. His anger is literally plastered all over the site that mistreated him. Which is kind of badass, but really awful.

(I don't think it was translated into English, maybe for shady reasons. Correct me if I'm wrong. There is a parody chapter where he yells at Naver for an entire page. Google it.)

He's not making money, because TOG isn't updating right now. I think this is a travesty.

SIU doesn't get a cut of merch sales? He doesn't have a nest egg from licensing the anime? Maybe I'm overthinking it.

He has his own studio with multiple assistants. I imagine he can't afford that without regular updates. (Also unfair in a way. Many people would assume Naver provides a helping hand here. They are huge in Korea. Do they not help with rent? Computer/drawing program updates? Their authors deserve the best basic resources. Because...you know...Naver expects crazy high quality work every week.)

I know this problem isn't exclusive to SIU. I'm very glad he's being so open about the horrors of work/life balance.

It's complicated, and I don't need to know all the details. The point is, this could have been prevented. Nothing is stopping these companies from acknowledging exhaustion.

Give them a two month break each year, like teachers. If they really have to produce weekly content. Those two months would probably help with keeping the script quality high too.

Burnout is real and entertainment shouldn't be squeezed out of miserable, sick creators.

Naver shot themselves in the foot. Don't blame SIU. Don't pester SIU in the comments.

Pester Naver. Blast Webtoon. Ask about the pay rates for authors. If you really have to be annoying hit the company that swept this under the rug. SIU clearly doesn't get vacation pay. That's bad enough.

I've discovered there's a lot you can do inside haunted houses.

For example, you can:

be in a shampoo commercial

start a boy band:

spot some choice booty:

break into song:

see some people in frankly offensive outfits:

image

attend a metal show:

image

listen to some sick jams:

discover zombieism:

image

sample some tasty snacks:

watch someone get burned bad:

find something you really like:

Reading on what's under cut is deeply appreciated.

Hi guys!!

How are you doing?

I hope you're all doing well.

If you noticed, I was inactive for the past days in the middle of an event.

I actually stopped for two days so I can finish all my tasks in academic and keep my responsibilities irl checked.

I was really happy that I'm done with the tasks last night but I celebrated too early.

Unfortunately, my PC broke not my fault tho.

For the past months since this pandemic started, I decided to draw and practiced more digitally. My drawing tablet has been collecting dust for years, so to satiate my boredom, I used it.

It was fun, tiring, but worth it.

I spent my months just watching anime, reading webtoon, and just laying around. So re-enhancing my old hobby gave spice to my boring and dull days.

Revisiting my old fandom of tower of God has been the best decision of my life for this year. My drawings somehow improved and I met a lot of new friends.

I'm deeply grateful for giving me the opportunity to join this fandom, and letting me meet new people.

The last time I checked, I only draw for extra points in academic and just because I'm bored. I never realized that doing this can be my passion.

I feel like I'm a kid again. A sudden surge of hopes and dreams.

I wanted to post a new fanart for reaching 100 followers. Originally, it was supposed to be Lio from Promare and should be posted for my birthday/start of my school year, Oct 5. But i decided to put it on hold, I want to draw Khun in Promare vibrant colored style. Plus, I should start my works for the Halloween event.

But alas, in every celebration, there's an ending.

Last night was a mess.

A sudden turn of event happened.

I already know that this might occur. But I didn't expect that it could be this worse.

The last pic in this post is the last one i draw digitally.

I would like to say thank you.

Thank you for everyone who noticed my works.

Thank you for liking my works.

Thank you appreciating my works

Thank you for the people I've met here.

I would be lying if I said that my whole personality didn't change.

I'm not quite sure if I can draw digitally now neither traditionally, seems like me holding a drawing pencil will be a taboo here in my household obviously this is an exaggeration but ngl they don't like me doing this

Darn, i can't join the hype train for ToG's comeback.

I'm a mess right now. My mind is just trapped and I feel like I'm in the middle of a dark road with nowhere else to go.

It's been a fun ride.

No, I'm not sure if I'm stopping.

But i know to myself that I'll be back.

Thank you and I'll see you again.
